Does Allah concern with every person?

Almighty Allah Ta'ala is our Creator. We were non existent. He created us and chose us to be the best and most Noble creation, human beings. He could have made us an animal, a pig, a dog, etc. or a tree in the jungle with no expectations of eternal enjoyment in paradise.

We should be thankful to Him for creating us and making us human beings. There is no doubt in the existence of Allah. Ponder upon His creations, the skies, the mountains, the bright sunlight, rain, fruits, vegetables, etc. Do not take those things for granted. Ponder upon them and search for the recognition of Allah. You will certainly recognize Him if you are sincere.

The purpose of coming into this world is to express our slavery and subordination to Him just as a slave does to His Master. Allah says, 'He will test us in very many different ways, and only those that are patient and endure the difficulties and submit to His Will will be successful. Almighty Allah Ta'ala Knows best the condition of every creature. He knows your indept feelings.

Allah is Most Gracious and Most Merciful. He says in the Noble Qur'aan, 'Oh My Slaves! Do not despair. Verily Allah will forgive all sins.'

In one Hadith, Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) is reported to have said, 'If a person has sins equivalent to the foams of the sea and pebbles on a desert, Allah's mercy is so encompassing that He will forgive every sin.' In another narration, it is mentioned that Allah will speak secretly to one of His slaves on the day of Qiyaamat and remind him of all his sins. After the person will confess his sins, Allah will say to him, 'I concealed your faults in the world, today too, I will conceal your faults. Go in Jannah, I have forgiven you.'

The above mentioned are few of many Ahaadith explaining the extent of Allah's Mercy. However, Allah says, 'Verily Allah will not forgive a person who ascribe partners (commit Shirk) with Him.' The only sin that is unforgivable is Kufr (disbelief) and Shirk (ascribing partners). Accepting Islam is the only atonement for the sin of Kufr and Shirk.

You should anticipate His mercy and come back to Islam. He will forgive all your sins and you should associate with pious people, Ulama, etc. and constantly request them for guidance. You should not draw your own conclusions as that will be harmful to you.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
